Split in to twohalves, the first half of the exam had four potentialtopics but only three questions.
巴斯泉大學心理學專業(yè)的學生遇到了一個難得的機會--考試大受打擊后能再考一次。5月30號(周三)的一門《高級認知和生物心理學》考試中，一些學生當場流淚，因為老師給他們劃的必考重點居然沒有出現(xiàn)在考題中。考試分成兩個部分，上半場有四個潛在主題，但只有三個問題。
Meaning one of the topics would not appear.
也就是說其中一個主題不會在試卷中出現(xiàn)。
A student, who wished to remain anonymous, contacted Somerset Live about the exam andexplained that they had been told to revise "at least two topics as a safety buffer". However, headded that a member of university staff made matters more complicated. He said: "Apparently a member of staff gave out a hint in a seminar that the sleep topic was definitelygoing to come up.
一位不愿透露姓名的學生聯(lián)系了Somerset Live，描述了這場考試，并解釋老師讓他們"至少復習兩個主題，這樣比較保險"。然而，他補充說，一些老師卻讓這場考試變復雜了。他說道："顯然，一些老師在研討會上給出了暗示：睡眠主題肯定會考。"
"I did not hear this directly but the people that did only revised sleep, despite lecturersdefinitely saying to revise two topics." He added: "Before the exam started there was lots ofcommotion as people made jokes about leaving the exam if the sleep topic wasn't there."
"雖然他/她沒有明說，但有些人的確只復習了睡眠話題，盡管我們老師說一定要復習兩個。"他補充道："考試開始前，有些人還開玩笑說如果不考睡眠主題，他們就離開考場之類的話，引起了一陣騷動。"
"But these jokes soon turned to tears for a lot of people when the paper was turned over andsleep was not on it." These tears resulted in a 'disturbance' during the exam, with many peoplechoosing to get up and walk out.
"但很快，當試卷發(fā)下來卻沒考睡眠主題時，很多人都不淡定的哭了。"這些淚水在考試期間造成了'干擾'，很多人選擇放棄、走出了考場。
Because of this the university has offered students the chance to re-take the paper. The offerwas made in an email sent round by Executive Dean, Andy Salmon. In the email, he said: "Asyou are aware we have investigated a number of complaints about the Advanced Cognitive & Biological Psychology."
因為這所大學給了學生重考的機會。執(zhí)行院長安迪·薩爾門在郵件中提出了這個機會。他在郵件中寫道："大家都知道我們調查了一些學生，他們抱怨了《高級認知和生物心理學》這門考試。"
"Following this investigation we decided that we would provide students who feel their examwas disrupted, with an extraordinary opt-in opportunity to resit this exam. While theUniversity is not obliged to provide this, we believe it is the equitable thing to do." However notall students were happy with the offer.
"這次調查之后，我們決定給學生一個機會(他們在考試中深受打擊)，讓他們重考一次。雖然學校沒有義務這么做，但我們認為這是公平的做法。"但并非所有的學生都對這一機會感到滿意。
